BIOS Updater tool for laptop says it is not comptible with laptop.
I have a Satelite C855D-S5106, and Toshiba says, when I go through all the dropdown boxes to select my model of laptop, that there are two (one older, one newer) BIOS updates for this laptop. However, when running either update tool, they both give me a notice, stating that they are not compatible with my model of laptop.
What do I do now?
The Toshiba service station can also update the bios.

The newest bios update information:
Change History
Version 6.20 - 2013-01-21
Fixed: System hangs after settings are changed by TSS.
Added: CER key for a Smart DE issue.
This shows that it fix's system hangs after settings are changed by TSS (Toshiba service station), That tool shows you what updates are available, then downloads and installs them for you. Because of this I would update the bios though many believe that if its not broke dont fix it when it comes to the bios.
The Toshiba service station sometimes will show a bios update that does not apply to your laptop, it went away after a couple of weeks on mine.

The latest update attempt from FireFox has stated that it is not compatible with the Kasperskys' anti-virus 2012 software. When will FireFox be compatible?
Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac. There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
If you prefer, you can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
Mozilla are working to prevent Mac users with non-compatible systems from getting the notification about Firefox 4, and also not displaying the "Download Firefox 4" button on http://www.mozilla.com

Bios update UEFI for Pavilion dv6-6b13ss

PS : when update the bios with file HP presented for Pavilion dv6 6166ee i got the message that this bios update its not for this model.
thanks,Hi @aliens1983
Welcome to the HP Forums!
It is a terrific place to find answers and information!
For you to have the best experience in the HP forum I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide Learn How to Post and More
I grasp you are unsure of the exact model notebook you have as the auto detect states you have the Pavilion dv6-6b13ss but the sticker on the bottom states it is Pavilion dv6 6166ee .
It is most likely the former as that is what the tool detected after scanning your system for information.
Here is a link to How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number? that may also help to clarify this for you.
Here is a link to the HP Pavilion dv6-6b13ss Entertainment Notebook PC Support And Drivers where it does list the latest recommended bios update as F.1C.
I hope this helped.

BIOS Update Utility for Win8 x64?
I need to install a BIOS update available for the H430, but Lenovo doesn't offer an update utility that runs under 64-bit Windows. The instructions in the BIOS download say to download an ISO image file and burn it to a CD. That's fine, but I can't find any such file on the Lenovo site.
How do I install a BIOS update on an H430 running Win8 x64?Quote from: GGMan on 24-May-06, 10:37:33
Hi, when I try to update the BIOS from 1.4 to 1.6 I get the following error message "The image file c:\....\7185v16\AWFL859G.exe is valid, but is for a machine type other than the current machine" . The reason I am doing an up date is because its detecting my CPU at 0 revs. But when i use another scoket on the MB (system fan) it reads it ok. And when I put the system fan into CPU, its ok as well . Hence the Update. Plus I cant get "live update 3.75" to work as get the following error all the time "service has not started" (not to bothered about this error). I am currently using XP Pro x64 Edition .
Regards
GGMan
ok, let me understand. you want to update because the CPU fan shows 0 rpms in BIOS. if you put the system fan on the CPU fan connector, then it shows a correct value for rpms? then the BIOS is not a problem, but the fan is. did you check if the fan was actually spinning or the connector was properly inserted? anyway, have you also checked if the BIOS version you want to flash to contains a fix for your problem? you can see that in the BIOS release notes.
it seems to me that you are trying to flash with the wrong BIOS. make sure that if you flash, you use the correct one for your mobo. -
i am using a GLOBE prepaid microsim for my new ipad with retina. i was registered with supersurf 999, and i was able to enjoy my internet connection until i updated my ios with 6.1... since then, every time i go online,it says i am not registered with mobile internet... however, when i insert the microsim on my broadband, i can actually go online... what to do??? my apn setting in internet.globe.com.ph which is for prepaid users...
PS - I just sent this to a few of my friends in the big hardware review sites, as well as a few apple execs:
Whats up guys? Its your old buddy dom "battleship mtron author , 9 ssd drives in raid 0" years ago. lol
I wanted to fill you in on a HUGE problem with the new ios 6 update.
My iphone 4 updated without a hitch.
My ipad 3 on the other hand has a HUGE PROBLEM. It is essentially a brick without wifi (since the device relies on wifi for just about every task).
There are currently hundreds of a users within the last 2 hours reporting the same error on the apple discussions site.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/19626235#19626235
What happens is simple:
1. Download and install the update on Ipad 3.
2. Try and connect to your normal wifi connection.
3. It will connect for a few seconds and than fail stating "no internet connection available"
4. It is no a brick without wifi accessibility. (unless we revert to ios 5)
I have tried resetting my router. Resetting settings on the ipad. Renewing the ip address both LOCALLY and through the WAN at the cable modem and rebooting all of my networking equipment (ie: router), I even tried doing a complete wipe and re-install of ios 6 fresh. You guys know I am a tech geek from my background and I have tried everything so I just wanted to fill you in on this potential problem for apple.

I use an online application that doesn't work with FF, but I had been able to use an IE plugin within FF and it worked fine. After the last update (3.6.12), it says plugin is not compatable with version. Help
go to '''TOOLS '''then '''OPTIONS''' then '''ADVANCED''' then '''NETWORK tab''' then '''SETTINGS tab''' and select the options '''NO PROXY''' click '''OK''' and '''OK '''again in the next screen. With that you have disabled the proxy settings.
''if you like to not disable the proxy settings choose'' : '''Auto-detect proxy settings for this network''' (it is in the same session)
thank you

I am trying to get the CLIPPINGS add on for firefox. but when I try and download it, it says it is not compatible with FirFox 8.0. also the latest version of firfox is 3.1 but my version is 8.0 Is that right?
There were some issues with the addons site and checking for (compatibility) updates.<br />

click >Drivers & Software
Verify or choose Yosemite 10.10 - then click the [+]
Again verify Yosemite > click agree > click [DOWNLOAD]

Trying to install the new itunes update and it keeps saying error could not install itunes. Currently I am running windows 7. Any advise to fix this problem. This is doing this when installing itunes/quicktime, safari 5, mobileme control panel, and the software update itself. The itunes version is 10.3.1
That suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer? -

If you didn't back it up, your data is gone. There is no "solution" after the fact.

Hi all,
For some time now, my appstore app shows an update available for CodeBox, which I did not buy. When I try to update it it asks for my ID and password (all normal), but then it gives an Unknown Error.
I am 100% sure I didn't buy the app, I do not see any transaction on my card or in the appstore apart of this one, so does not seem to be a hack.
Does anyone know what is happening, this is a tricky thing which is making me lose trust in the payment/account system that Apple is using.
Thanks!
Isidrowell... actually you are right dahveed, i had a dodgy copy of galaxy on fire 2 (boring game), that's what was giving me the issue. i followed your posts about the MAS etc., and discovered this was the problem. Corrected. You're a knowledgable man, thank you

Hi G,
If you're not using Software Update (in the Apple menu), use that.
If you are using SU and getting that message, try going to http://support.apple.com/downloads/ and downloading it, then install it. -
